A Medley by Linda Straub


Soft Shoe
 
Dancing
on the seam of evening
and an unveiling morn,
gliding
under the bent light
of a candled chandelier,
giving in
to a greater passion
 
 
Departing
 
I searched for you
in the blind fog
of increasing distance,
in the solitude of shadows.
 
At home, a dark room,
your photograph developing.
 
 
Grandchild
 
Dawn at twilight,
sunshine in rain,
gentle breeze
brushing
a furrowed brow;
touch of warmth
leading me out of the cold.
